Materiality training

Materiality is a chicken-and-egg problem: you need impact data to assess materiality, but you need to conduct a materiality assessment to know which impacts to survey.

From compliance to value-creating decisions

Sustainability Regulation as a compliance trap leading to the opposite than the intention. PI Impact Accounting Framework, Impact Accounting Standard PI Value & Risk Framework, PI Strategy Framework PI Rahmenwerk zur Wirkungsbilanzierung, PI Wert & Risiko Rahmenwerk, PI Strategie Rahmenwerk

Sustainability decisions require more than measurement — they need direction and financial clarity.

Why we go beyond compliance: Treating sustainability as just a reporting or compliance exercise can be the biggest mistake leaders make.

What we recommend to do instead

1. Measure positive and negative Impacts

Establish a fact-based baseline of where you stand today and where your impacts are heading tomorrow.

2. Link Impacts to Value & Risk

Translate impacts into financial insight, revealing where sustainability affects performance and guiding next steps for value protection and creation.

3. Define Strategy

Use these insights to set the right strategic ambition level — ensuring sustainability fits seamlessly into your strategy and drives competitiveness and growth across the short, mid, and long term.
